Child's Blossom Purse Reviewed by stacie nichols on 2009-07-22
Such a cute idea and fun yarn color choices, however I didn't care for the chain spaces on the petal motifs. I re-worked the petal motif with half double crochet(hdc)and placed increases evenly for 5 rounds so the work lies flat and then worked 1 slip stitch(sl st)in each stitch around for the 6th and final round of each petal motif. For the handle, I began with 61 sc. On last row of handle, I did just 1 sc between sc's.
